  • Dorothea Lange 1934
    Dorothea Lange 1934 Documentary photographer Dorothea Lange (1895–1965) is best known for her work during the 1930s with Roosevelt's Farm Security Administration (FSA). Born in New Jersey, Lange studied photography at Columbia University, then moved to San Francisco in 1919 earning a living as a successful portrait photographer. In 1935 in the midst of the Great Depression, Lange brought her large-format Graflex camera out of the studio and onto the streets. Her photos of the homeless and unemployed in San Francisco's breadlines, labor demonstrations, and soup kitchens led to a job with the FSA. From 1935 to 1939, Lange's arresting FSA images—drawing upon her strength as a portrait photographer—brought the plight of the nation's poor and forgotten peoples, especially sharecroppers, displaced families, and migrant workers, into the public eye. Her image "Migrant Mother" is arguably the best-known documentary photograph of the 20th century and has become a symbol of resilience in the face of adversity. Lange's reports from the field included not just photographs, but the words of the people with whom she'd spoken, quoted directly. "Somethin' is radical White Angel Breadline, 1933 wrong," one told her; another said, "I don't believe the President (Roosevelt) knows what's happening to us here." Lange also included her own observations. "They have built homes here out of nothing," she wrote, referring to the cardboard and plywood "Okievilles" scattered throughout California's Central Valley. "They have planted trees and flowers. These flimsy shacks represent many a last stand to maintain self-respect." At the age of seven Lange contracted polio, which left her right leg and foot noticeably weakened.

  • Human Erosion in California (Migrant Mother), Dorothea Lange Human
    J. Paul Getty Museum Education Department Exploring Photographs Information and Questions for Teaching Human Erosion in California (Migrant Mother), Dorothea Lange Human Erosion in California (Migrant Mother) Dorothea Lange American, Nipomo, California, 1936 Gelatin silver print 13 7/16 x 10 9/16 in. 98.XM.162 “I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother . She told me her age, that she was thirty-two. that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children killed.” —Dorothea Lange Dorothea Lange's poignant image of a mother and her children on the brink of starvation is as moving today as when it first appeared in 1936. Lange took five pictures of this striking woman, who lived in a makeshift shelter with her husband and seven children in a Nipomo, California, pea-picker's camp. Within twenty-four hours of making the photographs, Lange presented them to an editor at the San Francisco News, who alerted the federal government to the migrants' plight. The newspaper then printed two of Lange's images with a report that the government was rushing in 20,000 pounds of food, to rescue the workers. Lange made this photograph while working for the Resettlement Administration, a government agency dedicated to documenting the devastating effects of the Depression during the 1930s. Her image depicts the hardship endured by migratory farm workers and provides evidence of the compelling power of photographs to move people to action. About the Artist Dorothea Lange (American, 1895–1965) "One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind.

  • The Great Depression – Reading List - Monday, July 26 – 7:00 Pm Non-Fiction
    The Great Depression – Reading List - Monday, July 26 – 7:00 pm Non-Fiction Available at HTFL and other Delaware County Libraries The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl, Timothy Egan The dust storms that terrorized the High Plains in the darkest years of the Depression were like nothing ever seen before or since. Timothy Egan’s critically acclaimed account rescues this iconic chapter of American history from the shadows in a tour de force of historical reportage. Following a dozen families and their communities through the rise and fall of the region, Egan tells of their desperate attempts to carry on through blinding black dust blizzards, crop failure, and the death of loved ones. Brilliantly capturing the terrifying drama of catastrophe, Egan does equal justice to the human characters who become his heroes, “the stoic, long-suffering men and women whose lives he opens up with urgency and respect” (New York Times). The Complete Idiot’s Guide to The Great Depression, H. Paul Jeffers You’re no idiot, of course. You’re aware that Wall Street crashed in 1929, leading to a financial disaster that lasted more than a decade. But despite what you’ve heard about “Black Tuesday,” the Great Depression didn’t happen overnight or because of one bad day on Wall Street. The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression, Amity Shales Challenging conventional history, Amity Shlaes offers a reinterpretation of the Great Depression. She shows how both Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt failed to understand the prosperity of the 1920s and heaped massive burdens on the country that more than offset the benefit of New Deal programs.

Taylor 3 ABOUT THE EXHIBITION 4 NOTES TO TEACHERS 5 THE POWER OF SEEING 15 RESPECT AND DIGNITY FOR ALL 23 PERSUASIVE PROOF 32 ADDITIONAL RESOURCES DOROTHEA LANGE TEACHER RESOURCES 3 ABOUT THE EXHIBITION Dorothea Lange is recognized as one of the most important photographers of the 20th century. Together with the novels of John Steinbeck and the songs of Woody Guthrie, her photographs stand as the central artistic statement of the Dust Bowl years. Dorothea Lange: Politics of Seeing is the first exhibition to examine Lange’s work through the lens of social and political activism, demonstrating how the focus and impact of her photography extends far beyond the Depression. On Lange’s death in 1965, her archive of more than 25,000 negatives, 6,000 prints, papers, field notes, and correspondence was gifted to the Oakland Museum of California. Dorothea Lange: Politics of Seeing includes approximately eighty-five framed vintage photographs, more than fifty digital prints scanned from Lange’s original negatives, along with a selection of ephemera drawn from this vast archive. Through in-gallery media, interactive experiences, and the photography of contemporary artists highlighting connected social issues, this exhibition provides viewers the opportunity to analyze the enduring legacy of her work. Designed to provoke social and political change, Lange’s photographs urged Americans to see and respond to suffering and injustice, stimulating their empathy and rendering faceless crowds into recognizable individuals. Not merely historical, they are timely and provocative, serving in the contemporary context as inspiration for new generations of documentary photographers.
